Company info

We are the perfect fusion of Swiss accuracy and the American way of life. Sasha is our beloved companion. She is a very friendly and people loving dog, who loves all the attention. Her bark lets us know someone is coming for a visit and she will greet all our guests with a tail wag. Sasha loves the beach and swimming with the turtles and riding on the Jet Ski. Overall, we love her very much and we hope you are ok with her to be around.
